In Tokyo, "prosucc" is said to be the fastest car on the Metropolitan Expressway Shutoko including Wangan. Equipped with great power by twin turbos with quotas and deadlines, and burning gasoline and lives, it is overworked!
I'm so excited you're modifying the prosucc, I appreciate this so much. Dead honest, what i like EVEN more than typical iconic and hyped cars everyone buys and modifies, are the odd commuter cars no one would think of touching. Buying a affordable car that any average joe could buy and making it yours, THIS IS WHAT IT'S ABOUT. This is what I truly appreciate about car culture, this is what it should be about and what makes it special.
It's cool about car culture that every country has THE car that built the whole thing. There's only a handful of models worldwide that achieve a level of social importance because they were *the* cheap useful car that everyone who needed to get shit done got.
huge agree. i do love the heyday japanese sports cars, the classic restorations etc, but making something like this cool - and possibly go round corners fast - is what I really love about cars.
I just spent 2 months in Japan, helping my friend at his dealership... doing mechanic work/shaken/auctions etc.. In Japan when people/companies give up their cars to be sold off I find it so odd HOW MUCH STUFF they leave in the car. Mostly CDs, cell phone holders/chargers, and other personal items... One time in a trunk of a JZX was a whole tool bag (with tools) and spare parts for the car (headlights and tail lights) and a bunch of Drift Tengoku magazines. Kind of a weird glimpse in to somebody's life, or if it was some company vehicle.. figuring out what the company did.
The metal thing in the back left looks like a server rack rail (used so you can get at the server "modules" when they are mounted, they slide out like a drawer) Also knob too small, relatable lmao
The production quality is off the scale, seriously hats off to you. Can’t wait to see more on the Problox! Suspension, wheels/tires, brakes and a proper cat-back exhaust (maybe TRD?) would be sick!
Really love how we got more of the scenery of Japan and you just doing mundane things, I know this is a car channel but I really enjoy seeing some everyday stuff like you eating cup noodles and that lol, it's a nice change of pace and oddly entertaining
Damn! It gives me the vibes like these small cars that people use to go for camping. It seems amazing as a multipurpose car. My dream is to just move up to Japan, buy one of these cars, and start road tripping and camping on it. I can't wait to see the changes you are going to make on it!
@@kevinmenard6792 I tried searching for it but I haven't found it sadly. Maybe Alexi could help, he also talked about it in a video/stream iirc. I'll try to find it nonetheless and if I manage it I will answer you on here.
@@kevinmenard6792 I found it! It even has English subtitles and is on the DRIFT STATION channel! 2014 Vol 85 part 1 - All Japan Student Drift Championship, min 7:00
i LOVE the videos of routine day to day stuff around japan... like buying drinks from machines, or going out to buy parts for cars etc. it just so natural and wholesome.
14:20 I'm just imagining that there is some JAV out in Japan that has an actress.......mounting said shift knobs Alexi got. That's why their "popular."
That table reminds me of my old super custom hiace. The center console had a fridge with an ice tray in the coldest part, plus a canteen kinda thing that would heat water to just below boiling (cos it was plastic). It was so Japanese. One speaker am radio tho. That's a bit rough.
I've talked with my friend literally today, and I asked "what reliable and cheap van/MPV should I buy?". And he told "Probox", then explained that it's literally the simplest and cheapest option, while being extremely reliable. Thanks for the video!
i loved that little "introduction" nomu jr. did lol, also that part where he tried the shift knobs just left me like 😦the entire time LMAO but fr i love the new video style he's doing now, with the (old) top gear-like intros and the music/informative narrations he puts over b-roll sometimes...cant wait to see more, this is genuinely one of my comfort channels.
@@XxmatixX6videosdiariosdenadav im not sure they are that reliable. Maybe? But ive never seen one with more than 258,000km on it when it arrived at a scrap yard. (kangoo's) we dont have the peugeot here in aus as far as i know. Our small "panel vans" of the era were the holden/opel/vauxhall combo (like a barina/corsa but a van) and the kangoo.
The intro use to remind me of a anime intro, now due to the narration it reminds me more about the old BBC Top gear. Pro succ, brilliant. Personally I would do what you want to do. (Lower, rims & tyres), and then keep the roof rack and the old stickers. Then it looks like a van that does work, but has been modified. Also great storage spot on the roof.
I want it, as it lets you travel forward in time... Roof rack off, rear seat out, brakes, wheels & tyres, intake and exhaust. That'll be a good start. Onya Alexi!
The kabuki sound effect moment at 7:31 was wonderful, I also loved it in the recent RX7 video but after hearing it again I ended up spending like an hour learning about kabuki theater and I just wanted to say thank you for that lololol
I think it would be pretty funny if you pulled this thing into your new shop and tried to install a bunch of mods using just a small universal tool kit in your empty shop... unless you already bought a bunch of tools lol
I own a similar Toyota in Thailand. It is called "Avanza" and is basically a tall station wagon. It's narrow width is perfect for small streets and its high clearance is great for flooded streets. I have dual fuel (LPG-gasoline) on it, it's a great little workhorse.
i love how this car is at the same time so bland but it screams potential, i can see why its the companies car of choice, you could make this an ad on wheels you should make it into a itasha
How far are you willing to take this @noriyaro - the old Volvo 850 BTCC livery would fit perfectly, except replace SECURICOR with PROSUCCAR on the front :D
As much as I appreciate all the usual JDM legends you see on TH-cam, I must say it's really refreshing to see a build on a vehicle that is generally considered more an appliance than a car.
I stumbled on to ProBoxes by accident a few years ago on a Japanese auction site and have been wanting one ever since. Was super stoked to see you grab one and definitely excited to see what you do with it.
I do really like the nice and chill camera walking, you know. I mean the moody, slow camera. With a little bit of music in the background, it would be a very chill video for the evening :D
PLEASEEE, need more videos where you go somewhere whit the probox, buy some noodles and show us beautiful spots whith those cinematics, also telling us history and stuff from these spots. So chilled here smoking and watching this LOVELY video. love you so much noriyaro.
This reminds me of the pre-2000 VW Sharan. I owned one for five months till my daily driver got repaired and it's also very interesting car if you get it with the right engine and stock equipment. I got one with 2.8L VR6 24v 201hp engine and the maxed out setup. It got a air suspension with 3 modes (comfort, sport, standard), some big a$$ CRT navigation/TV system which was very up to date after installing a patch which allowed you to still communicate with google maps through a 3G internet SIM Card (yes, that one from Siemens with remote), MD/CD/Cassete player by Sony, parking sensors that didn't work on my unit and some little display that acted like a board computer but only displayed the time and current fuel consumption. Great little van, great performance for such an old car but it had it's flaws. Like I got the ignition switch stuck on the IGNIT. Position and had to push the key back manually and also once the little gear selector bar got disconnected from the gear box and I couldn't reverse the car. I fixed that by replacing the plastic ball with a metal one and also the connector on the bar with a metal clip. At this point, I somewhat regret giving that car to my dad because he burned the starter after having the same issue with the ignition switch and also he crashed it into a moose. However, this was a typical dad's car and I didn't had much use for it.
Cannot wait to see the company stickers on the car. I think getting a proper roof rack would be good so you can carry more things and for it to be safe. 🤣 This car is fantastic. Looking forward to this video series. Keep up the good work.
Wheels, lowered to still be functional and maybe some aeroparts like front bumper and sideskirts and it's done! Perfect working horse which also pleases the eye.
Touring car vibe sounds good. Lower it, do the usual maintenance if you haven't already, some wheels and remove the roof bars, and it will already be a great box on wheels.
I don't watch every single video you put out, but when I do watch your videos, the thing I appreciate most is how you totally immerse yourself into Japanese culture and the way your able to pick up on these totally obscure things that make total sense coming from a Japanese perspective. I felt the same way watching the Dajiban video which before that no one in the west was aware of. I feel the same thing will happen with these Proboxes. I was totally unaware these existed, but now I'm extremely envious that I see F-150s instead of Pro-Succs
Hi alexi, i know the turbo upgrade is more common and more easier to find. But few years a go Hot version did an episode with Supercharged fitz with (1NZ-FE engine), it generate a lot of good comments and they say it helps the small engine to climb mountain road better. The supercharge kit is made Blitz and looks pretty complete pack. thanks for the video
This is EXACTLY what made me love cars in the firstplace.. cheap as all hell yet somehow cool as fuck. Something about them thats just buzzing with character, no matter how shite it may be. I love it
All the reasons you bought this car and everything you spoke about is basically why I bought my Honda Fit(Jazz) as a daily. I fucking love it. If they had these running around the US I would have absolutely tried to pick one up.
Dude, ain't need fast. This thing can haul all your drift stuffs plus tyres and still tow your drift car to any event. Without even breaking anything, it's a pure workhorse! Maybe you can add some big NORIYANO on the side!
I really loved this video ! so chill getting a coffee and enjoying a rainy day on the Hakone pass. Can't wait to go there myself one day, maybe in a ProSucc
Pretty neat van! I’d keep the rack and stickers I’ve got a ‘14 Transit Connect Swb with a rack, I plan to lower and eventually drop a RS engine with a manual trans in it…my dream because my dad bought it new. Will be fun to take him for a drive when it’s all done
Because of your videos I've added the Probox to my list of dream cars. That was awesome and it's great to see Nomuken Jr too. I'm still a fan of his dad, the original Nomuken from the early days of D1. I'd love to join the supporter's program if there's something for fans in the USA.
I saw that bigass shifter and a voice from the past echoed through my mind... "I ain't tryin' to play my games... with no DEAL DOUGH" :P Ancient internet references aside, these are unironically pretty cool IMO! Honest little car, doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is. I respect that.
I know you said you were going to do more videos showing off Japan and it's sights and even though the weather wasn't the best I did appreciate the first part of the video when you were at Hakone. Hope to see more videos in that kind of style!

thought the same thing when i saw it - not window protection as it's only on one side
Them "shift-knobs" deffinetely put the emphasis on the "knob" part rather than the "shift" 😳

Already has good suspension from the factory

I am sorry, but what the vending machines sell in Japan is a sweet brown caffeine-based liquid.
It most pointedly is NOT coffee.
I saw that bigass shifter and a voice from the past echoed through my mind...
"I ain't tryin' to play my games... with no DEAL DOUGH" :P
Ancient internet references aside, these are unironically pretty cool IMO! Honest little car, doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is. I respect that.
Yay for JSP products getting all the over to Japan! I have a couple of his shift knobs for my Evo. Keep up the great content!
the production quailty is so good you have come such a long way
I know you said you were going to do more videos showing off Japan and it's sights and even though the weather wasn't the best I did appreciate the first part of the video when you were at Hakone. Hope to see more videos in that kind of style!
Production quality 100. What a vibe. Takes me back to touring Japan in our rental Kei car ❤️
